Seattle Fire Department Fireboat Leschi putting on a great waterfront show

I had a meeting in Seattle today at the Norton Building and took this picture from the Harbor Club on the 17th floor. The Leschi was putting on a great show along the waterfront.

Once upon a time I lived on Bainbrigde Island, just above the ferry parking lot on Winslow Way East and worked in the Norton Building, less than a block from the ferry dock in Seattle. This was my introduction to ferry commuting. Later in my life I communted from Suquamish to Kirkland, a commute I could never do again but I still have fond memories of my introduction to ferry communting.

Back to the Leschi, below, backing into it’s berth next to the ferry dock after completing the show!

Just another example of the on-going, ever changing show for ferry travelers.
